    Neck Lubing Process with Dry Neck Lube?

    There seems to be a handful of variables that would need to be absolutely controlled to draw any meaningful conclusion on which process works best. Neck wall thickness, annealing consistency, die and mandrel dimensions, lot to lot variation, etc. Short of having an arbor press and seating...

    Primary Arms Optics - Discovery 2025: PLx Compact Long Range Scopes Unveiled

    Thanks Ilya-what I thought. Not having one of the 2.5-20’s in hand, am hoping the Athena may be less busy tree style reticle for use on 6.5GR/CM AR’s. The Neptune option on 5.5-30, while providing lots of ‘information’, is entirely too crowded for my purposes. The website pics lack sufficient...

    Proof Research 22ARC barrel issues

    I had 5 22ARC builds in play and in the break in cycle of about 75-80 rounds per barrel, saw the fall off in accuracy and serious gas port erosion in all 5. To their complete credit, Nick replaced all 5 after their own examination and got them back to me pretty quickly. Happy with Proof...

    Primary Arms Optics - Discovery 2025: PLx Compact Long Range Scopes Unveiled

    Just a purely theoretical question, but if the community response to their initial reticle offerings was not as positive as they might have hoped, what would be the chance they could modify same before initial delivery to market-the thought that a minor delay for better market acceptance better...

    New Build #4 Ridgeline RD15 / Geissele 18" SPR Cut Rifled Barrel. (03JUN25) First Range Session up.

    Jake Nice work, as always. I tune my SDE’s second stage pull down-wonder what you’re able to settle on for same. I am good at 1lb. How do you like the SAAE-X after mods and using for awhile? How do they compare to TT’s, knowing the obvious difference in how they arrange stage 1/2?

    6.5 Grendel

    ARC and 8208 are pretty scarce, no doubt. But ARC and 4350 cover a lot of what I shoot most often, and have put some of each away for the long term. Cost averaged I’m probably at about $375/8lb for ARC. If you play it in terms of managing powder inventory, I can do with a stash of two rifle...

    6.5 Grendel

    If you’re having issue with accuracy with 120/123 Scenars or Sierras, I have had excellent long term success with AR Comp. Somewhere between 26.8-27.2ish is good for 2475-2550+, depending on barrel lengths of 18-22” and just how fast a barrel actually is. 2550 all day long in 20” Proof, single...

    KNS Precision

    I’m pretty sure a lot of us, especially AR crew, have/do/will use the excellent products from KNS Precision in Fredericksburg, TX. Most of you are not aware they’re sitting plumb in the middle of a very windblown 8600 acre wildfire that erupted yesterday. Their status unknown at this moment...

    Would you get into 6.5 Grendel in 2024?

    Proof in the production batches, and perhaps other mfgs might follow suit. I guess I’m one of those who allows it to get under my skin for my AR’s. Regardless, glad to see another quality producer out there-continuous improvement always welcome.
